Summary

In the Intraday Crisis Alpha Program (ICA) takes directional long and short trades during the US and Asian intraday sessions in US and Asian equity index futures (latter since 01/2019) soon to be complemented by the European intraday session (04/2019).

Investment Strategy

ICA is a pure intraday momentum program, focusing on large tail events in global equity indices, aiming to stay away from the average daily trading ranges that tend to be mean reverting. ICA is designed to benefit from big intraday moves to the upside as well as downside, generating pure alpha and providing hedging capabilities in times of crisis without the usual cost of an insurance premium. ICA lends itself well as portable alpha, not holding any overnight positions and requiring only little intraday margin. While the program has initially been developed and traded on the S&P 500 futures it has matured into a truly global program trading the uncorrelated intraday sessions in the US and Asia (latter since 01/2019) soon to be complemented by European markets (scheduled for 04/2019).
